Man, a Christmas song has never made me feel so happy and sad all at once. Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings just released a gorgeous video for "Please Come Home For Christmas," off of It’s A Holiday Soul Party, which was recorded and planned for release before Ms. Jones lost her battle with cancer. The video is a claymation, shot in the style of classic holiday films like Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer and The Little Drummer Boy, and seriously, if that's not enough to make you feel wonderfully nostalgic, we don't know what is. After Jones' passing, this already strong performance feels extra powerful.
